please don't try to start shit read what I said..... fems aren't as stable as regs plain and simple. I don't see why people are doing cs/etc when the plant normally reproduces maybe because they only want females but that's them I want to have no problems in the future not saying regs cant cause problems too. it's all about genetics, in all the times I've ran fems I've seen them herm more than regs.
I think its more a matter of environment and the grower when we are talking about percentages.

not really when your environment has been dialed in. and for all your fems to be fine and only one would pop balls or nanners and it would be only a few of them spread-out through the whole plant .

yea only if u get them from a reputable breeder. Its just on how its grown and bred. u can buy any fem and you'll most likely have no problems now if u start messing with "Fast" versions and breeders that just chuck shit to sell to people. In this case Im more thinking about the chances of getting some boof in a pack many places out there that give out like 10 seeds for like 100$+ and only like 3 of them germ and some of them will just be mutant bitches. so its really up to who u get them from. I've seen some major herms from fems from some seeds comps on the forum just got to look around it, That's usually where I can just see if people have problems with the breeders I look at. And a lot of these company's do send out replacements if their seed pack was complete shit. not smashing on fem just mainly the people that breed them to chuck them for no care of quality of the genetics.
Buyer beware for sure . The genetics of cannabis has been so watered down here because of all of the crosses that have been created that as a whole the genetics are prolly going down hill. I made the choice to keep with older proven strains a year or so ago. I really like bubblegum, widows NL, etc etc.
I still from time to time run a new strain to appease myself but usually am disappointed with the outcomes.

An oldschool strain can still outperform most of the newer crosses today if grown properly.

yup. I think I did hear people do cross old-school strains with new ones to try to stabilize the current ones didn't hear much on that but someone was saying something about it and honestly I think it could be true.

I know everyone is dialed in. Most growers say that. There is literally a hermi thread for every big breeder with regs online. Most of them here. Even bodhi. I have ran regs for 3 years consecutively because the dutch is not up on the hype. Seed Junky, Archives, GGG, Red Eye, Top Dawg, even bodhi have ALL given hermies. Actually even was told before getting more cowbell they will intersex before buying and it did just that, some genetics you just got to have

. Its all about the same herm percentage if not more with these genetics as i never had issues too often with fems unless i caused it to begin with. The dominant strains in the game ARE going to intersex and it has nothing to do with weather its reg or fem.

anyway I would love to know what strains/ breeders your running to never get hermies as most reports now are from regs as most people here are doing regs now moreso than say 5 years ago

I think i had a ssh from sensi or jack. It was a yielder and packed a punch. Real spacey time loser. I removed it when everyone wanted chem. Trying to find it with some bodhi breedings now. But i think hp/g13 taking too much edge off it though. May have to see if its the same at sensi if it dont work out
